| Tiki Barber's Last home game
One of the greatest RB's all time IMO, and he wasn't a full time back til the 2000 season when they went to the Superbowl vs the Raven's. Ima wear my Barber jersey with pride for years to come. Have a great game Tiki!
Gonna be sad without him next season.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (Dec. 21, 2006) -- Tiki Barber has been cheered and booed and loved and hated in a 10-year run with the New York Giants that has included the highs of playing in a Super Bowl and the lows of competing on a couple of bad teams.
Barber will walk through the tunnel at Giants Stadium one last time Dec. 24 in what will be the final home game of a career he is ending early to become a television personality.
"I know at some point, maybe this week -- it might not happen until after the New Year or the next game -- that I realize I won't be doing this anymore," Barber said. "But it is not something I am scared of or regret.
"It has been a great run for me. I know that. Great ups and great downs. I have been to a Super Bowl, and hopefully things turn around and we can go again."
Looking into Barber's eyes, one can sense the emotion the 31-year-old Pro Bowl running back is feeling as he prepares to retire at the height of his career. |
